The Buddha Belly is a delightful cafe and garden centre in the leafy northern suburbs of Terry Hills in Sydney. The restaurant looks out over Oriental gardens with a carp pond and bonsaied trees that flow through to several small out-buildings made from transported traditional Indonesian architecture, housing artisan home wares. The owners were very generous in allowing us to wander for hours, making photographs of their collection of plants and garden art. The Cafe serves great Chai and their traditional Nasai Goreng is delish!
Right next door is Mr Bamboo, if you happen to be looking for a rare variety of bamboo for your garden.
This place looks fantastic! :) I recall seeing this on another blog and thinking I must pay it a visit. Nice shots of what looks to be a lovely, tranquil place.
Lol, you should blog it! These pics were actually taken a year ago, and I heard they have revamped the cafe, but the menu was great when we were there.

'Probar ventura' = to try one’s fortune, to venture at, on, or upon. 3. Contingency, casualness, happenstance, adventure: 'a la (buena) ventura' = at random;without a fixed plan. 4. Future: that which is to come.

In the beginning there was The Tao - the great unknowable mystery.
The Tao gave rise to Yin & Yang. Yin & Yang gave rise to the Ten Thousand Things.
The Tao is like a well: used but never used up.
It is like the eternal universe: filled with infinite possibilities.
In dwelling, - live close to the ground. In thinking, - keep to the simple. In conflict, - be fair and generous. In governing, - don't try to control. In work, - do what you enjoy. In family life, - be completely present. In love, - don't jump to quick conclusions...
